The young Haitian-American artist, who pictured himself in the work with a demonic image among eye-popping colors, died in 1988 of a drug overdose at age 27.

In addition to the Basquiat, Maezawa acquired four other pieces of contemporary art at Christie’s late Tuesday, according to a statement by his Tokyo-based Contemporary Art Foundation. They were sold for a total of $81.3 million.

On Wednesday, he purchased a work by Romanian painter Adrian Ghenie for $2.59 million, more than 10 times its low-end estimate, and another by American Christopher Wool for $13.91 million, at Sotheby’s, the auction house said.

His foundation said Maezawa is planning to open a private museum in several years in Chiba, Japan where he grew up, and has been collecting works of art for the last 10 years to fill it.
